The legendary DJ Mehdi (Mehdi Faveris-Essadi) has been confirmed dead by his publicist, full details have not been issued yet the reports are that he fell from a roof to his death.

Mehdi was hosting a party at his house in Paris for fellow DJ Riton when part of the roof collapsed and Mehdi fell to his death. A number of other people were injured but Riton did not fall from the roof or suffer any injuries.

Mehdi had partnered with Riton to form Carte Blanche, and had been playing the UK’s Bestival just this weekend.
